Harry Potter and the Chamber of secrets Harry Potter and the Chamber of secrets is the second novel in the Harry Potter series, written by J.K Rowling. The plot follows Harry's second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, during which a series of messages on the walls of the school's corridors warn that the "Chamber of Secrets" has been opened and that the "heir of Slytherin" would kill all the pupils who do not come from all-magical families. These threats are found after attacks

J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” (1997) asserts the ideas that what we find in our past may sometimes affect who we are in the present and that the choices we make define the type of life we live. Rowling supports these ideas through the “rebirth” of Harry Potter, upon learning about his origins and allowing Harry to make his own choices. Rowling’s purpose is to point out that although our past influences our lives, what really matters are the choices we make everyday that foreshadow

helped me pick this school over the others is that I could picture myself going to this school. UCLA is known for being diverse, so they 're a lot different clubs/sports to join. I am a proud member of Quidditch and UCLA and USC are the only schools in California that actually have a Quidditch team. Quidditch is a sport I would like to pursue,so this is one of the reasons why I would like to attend UCLA.

character. 8. Flat: Cho Chang - Cho Chang is a very flat character because all he does is play Quidditch and is very good at it. She is the seeker of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team and when she smiles at Harry he gets a jolt in his stomach. Cho is very pretty with her looks and also is Harrys ex girlfriend who he previously dated for a while. The reason she is flat is because her only trait is being good at Quidditch. The story gives us no other traits from her other than being good at

Wysoahcarski is very impressed with Noah’s skill at quidditch. Noah of course can’t tell Mr. Wysoahcarski that he was an experienced quidditch player and even was going to play for the England National Quidditch Team. The school year was great for Noah because he had learned all of the materials at Hogwarts. He had the best grades in the school that year. All A’s except for the

Lockhart, who believes Harry flew the car to get attention, lectures Harry. Quidditch practices begin and Draco Malfoy is the new Slytherin seeker. On the field, he calls Hermione a "mudblood," insulting her Muggle heritage. After taunting Hermione, Draco is the suspect when, on Halloween night,

groupthink and exclusionary actions. Other social issues such as cliques and lack of trust can further erode a community, leading to even greater issues. These issues can spill out to elements of everyday life, creating chaos in their wake. While quidditch has allowed me to experience what a positive community can be, there have been many instances in my life where being part of a “community” has left me feeling demoralized and isolated. This is especially true for prior sports teams who value the

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire The Goblet of fire is the fourth movie of the Harry Potter franchise. Harry Potter and his friends get tickets to the Quidditch world cup, during which he encounters Lord Voldemort’s death eaters. After the scare, Harry Potter returns to Hogwarts School of Wizardry, where the Triwizard tournament is about to commence. Only three students, each representing one of the three schools magic namely Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, can participate; however, this

Keeping It Simple You would be hard pressed to find anyone who does not live under a rock that has not at least heard of Harry Potter, if not read a book or seen a movie. The series has become a cultural phenomenon that has people of all ages as loyal fans worldwide. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was the first book in the series by J. K. Rowling that had to have some qualities to capture audiences. Sure, it is a book about magic and adventures, but there are plenty of books about magic in

For example, Quidditch. “Up. Up. Up. His broom doesn’t move. Not even a millimeter. He stares at it .” This proves that just because Albus doesn’t like Quidditch, he doesn’t try to get his broom in his hand, but instead just stares at it. Albus is Determined, reluctant but also forgiving. This is proven during “bonding” moments after

talked to your brother in exactly 4 months, 2 weeks, and 3 days (not that you were counting). You favourite class, perhaps stereotypically, is potions. It gives you a challenge you haven 't faced before. You surround yourself with schoolwork and Quidditch and routine socialising. It helps you to forget the crushing weight that 's suddenly pushing down on you. It 's been there since your brother left. Your mother screamed and stomped and you were reminded all over again of when he was sorted into Gryffindor

Utopia By: Adrian In are community we have four different societies Serpent Section, Swan district, The Divergents, and Dragon Dimension. In each of our societies we all have different laws and schools. In Serpent Section he has science based school, so mechanics, scientist, and stuff like that. In Swan District they have the school of arts which is basically talents. The Divergents have the normal school that we have today with all the same subjects, but probably different clubs and stuff like

The Yaxley brothers quickly went into retreat after their father 's demise in the second wizarding war. once small time criminals, they now own the market for gambling on almost anything you can think of. The british and irish quidditch league is where they make the most of their money these days, but if you 're looking to lose some money over a card game you might be invited to their exclusive high stakes poker games. the yaxley family also run a loan shark venture, collecting their return on investment

When Narcissus is hunting, many a nymph looked upon him and loved him. In the Goblet of Fire, Harry thinks, “ He had been starting to quite like Cedric- prepared to look over the fact that he had once beaten him in Quidditch, was handsome, popular, and nearly everyone’s favorite champion. People mourned for the two when they died. Narcissus died from dehydration and starvation as he stared at his reflection. Cedric was killed by the Avada Kedavra or Killing Spell cast

Harry ends up in the hospital wing to heal and a student is found petrified. When Harry attends a dueling club, he finds out he can speak

I like Draco Malfoy because his character overall is massively complex, and you need to take a lot of time to analyse the book and his actions to understand his character. For example, in Half-Blood Prince there was multiple details emphasising his reluctance to kill Dumbledore. The details are subtle, and can easily be mistaken for elated anticipation, such as his wand dropping a fraction. That can happen to anyone, though his words are forced, just like he felt like he was forced to kill Dumbledore

The worst fictional character I’ve ever read about was Dolores Umbridge in the Harry Potter series. She was first introduced to Harry as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor during Harry’s 5th year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Dolores Umbridge was a Ministry of Magic official before she became a professor. Dolores was essentially a way for the Ministry to infiltrate Hogwarts, since the Ministry was in the process of being taken over by Voldemort and his followers, known
